HEAVEN IN DISGUISE

Across the room of vast vividness,

I saw someone with sparkles in her eyes,

Frowning at something she smiled,

And I knew I have found heaven in disguise.

In that room she stood and stood like an angel,

Her pretty face resembled the light of stars,

I glanced to look further into those sparkling eyes,

She still stood there waiting for her heaven in disguise.

 

Walking towards her I felt something,

A shiver down my spine,

Heartbeat raced the entire time,

I played and replayed an entire conversation in my head,

And suddenly found myself standing next to her as I said,

O pretty lady what’s your name?

She looked and smiled as if she was waiting for me the entire time.

 

Conversations began and night flew by,

Making promises to meet someday we said our goodbyes,

Hoping to hear from her, I gave her my number,

Waiting by the telephone day and night one day I decided to surrender.

 

Then when all hope died and nothing was left to be done,

My phone rang and it was her.

 

From there things progressed,

In a journey having nothing but love in the end,

All our worries and sorrows turning happy,

I found myself amidst love that was pure and fancy.

 

Waking up everyday next to her,

I still see sparkles in those eyes,

I was not wrong when I said,

I have found my heaven in disguise.
